2. Patrick Mahomes – Passing Yards (287.5)

Speaking of production in the passing game, the Kansas City Chiefs should have no problem moving the chains on the Cincinnati Bengals at the rate that they’ve been taking it to playoff opponents so far.

The Chiefs are not only at home at Arrowhead but they’re coming off of a confidence building win over the Buffalo Bills—who boasted the league’s top defense—with the sort of offensive performance that should inform them that they can beat anyone at any time.

The only way that Mahomes might end up short of eclipsing this yardage total is if the Chiefs end up gaining an early lead over the Bengals at home and end up running it down their throats in the second half behind a rebuilt offensive line that would love nothing more than the ability to maul and move the chains.

Pick: Over (-115)
